    Alabama vs. Western Kentucky Predictions

    I wish I could do a ride-along with Nick Saban. I’d just carry a tape recorder with me so I didn’t miss a drop of knowledge. He’s the greatest college football coach to roam the sidelines. He’s not losing to Western Kentucky. Jalen Hurts will do damage with his arm. He’ll create with his legs. He’ll do it all. Alabama will have plenty of opportunities to rotate players in because the Crimson Tide will be up by four touchdowns by the third quarter. You know what comes next, don’t you?

    Roll Tide Roll!

    Well, the Hilltoppers may be able to score more than six points, so they have that going for them. Western Kentucky head coach Jeff Brohm will be heading to a big school soon, and it is because of his prolific offense. (Look how well that has worked for Auburn! Sigh.) Alabama quarterback Jalen Hurts is a stud in the making, and the Tide will roll once again.

    Jeff Brohm has a perfect replacement for Brandon Doughty in Mike White, who should have a nice ‘16 campaign. However, he’s facing Alabama this week, which is not the typical competition that WKU will face the rest of the way. The Tide’s Jalen Hurts looked nothing like a freshman quarterback in the opener, and the defense looks scary once again. Roll Tide, Pawwwwwlllll!

    Jeff Bartl

    Few things make me smile more than Nick Saban losing. It would be sweeter to watch him lose to a man he once tried to hire as his offensive coordinator – the XFL legend, Jeff Brohm. Unfortunately, that’s just not going to happen. Western Kentucky is going to throw plenty with Mike White and the Hilltoppers are going to be a very good team in Conference USA. ‘Bama is ‘Bama, though, and Jalen Hurts is going to lead a 30-point blowout.
